Strawberry Waffles

May 19, 2022 Amanda Plott

I took a little bit of extra time this week to make myself some breakfast and I was not disappointed. These Strawberry Waffles were the perfect little bit of summer sweet strawberry to wake up to. I made sure that these waffles were from scratch too. And while they do take a few extra steps to make, they are definitely worth it!

The texture of these waffles is a bit more dense due to all the real strawberry goodness in there. It’s sort of on par with how banana bread is more dense and moist than a standard white bread due to the additional moisture from the fruit. But don’t worry, they still end up crisp on the outside and spongy on the inside!…

'Tortilla Trend' Omelette

May 13, 2022 Amanda Plott

There’s this trend going around right now called the ‘Tortilla Trend’ where you take a tortilla and cut it halfway through the middle and then proceed to fill each quarter segment of it with different things and then fold it over on itself to make a tasty wrap. I decided to take that idea and make into more of an omelette with some of my favorite breakfast burrito fillings.

This 'Tortilla Trend' Omelette is pretty easy to make though it does take a little bit of know-how and a gentle hand when it comes to the folding it over, but outside of that this is just as easy as any standard omelette to make!…

Sausage Egg & Cheese Stuffed Biscuits

Who’s ready for breakfast? These Sausage Egg & Cheese Stuffed Biscuits are a fun take on a grab-and-go breakfast option that are easy to make, fun to eat, and can be made ahead of time and reheated through the week. That’s right, these are everything you’d find in a good breakfast all stuffed inside a perfectly baked biscuit!

These breakfast biscuits are also made with just a few simple ingredients. Thankfully all of those ingredients were easily swapped for slightly more health conscious options and no one will be the wiser to the lightened up take…

Overnight Strawberries & Cream French Toast Bake

April 22, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s been a rough week! But, somehow 'I’m pressing on. This Overnight Strawberries & Cream French Toast Bake is not only easy to put together and delicious, but it’s also lightened up and is the perfect make ahead breakfast for a busy weekend. I’ve made a blueberry version of it before, but I decided to change it up a little bit this time and use up these big giant beautiful sweet strawberries that we have popping up ahead of Summer now.

Which let me just say, Summer cannot come quick enough! The strawberry farm that we like to go to is open right now and I think I’m going to have to make a trip out there to pick some of my own strawberries soon. But… back to he french toast bake!…

Banana Nut Waffles

April 7, 2022 Amanda Plott

These Banana Nut Waffles are here to stay. It’s as if banana nut bread and waffles got together and made one ultimate breakfast or brunch bite of awesomeness. And they’re made from scratch (that’s right, no boxed batter here!) It’s good stuff too. That means you get to put what you want and like in there. For instance, I went with chopped pecans AND chopped walnuts.

I like to make a batch of these ahead of time and then keep them on hand through the week to be enjoyed as a quick heat and eat breakfast option. And yes, they do reheat really well via a toaster or toaster oven to get back some of that original crispness!…

Spinach & Feta Bundt

March 26, 2022 Amanda Plott

I love to play around and shake things up a bit. And more often than not, we all think of a bundt pan as being used for something sweet. This time around I decided to use it for something savory. This Spinach & Feta Bundt could honestly fit into any meal space; breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner. And let me just say that this thing is absolutely bursting with flavor. It’s honestly one of the most delicious things I’ve eaten in a good long while.

It’s light, but still filling and has a richness to it with the feta cheese but also the lemon in there to cut through it. It’s really good stuff and it’s absolutely perfect for these few months of Spring. There’s just so much going on here that the only thing you’d really want to serve it with would maybe be a simple soup such as tomato soup!…
